A pile of currency notes was allegedly found floating in a sewer in a Bihar town, sparking a mad scamper to collect the money, showed a video.
The incident was reported from Sasaram, around 150 km from capital Patna.
After finding bundles of Rs 100 and 10 notes, a crowd started gathering on a bridge over the drain, while some even attempted to get inside the filthy water to collect the cash in the district's Moradabad area.
People were seen fishing through a pile of garbage to collect the cash, showed the video, which is now in wide circulation.
The police were called in to disperse the crowd and establish order.
"At around 8 am, we saw huge cash floating in the drain, so we stopped to see. When we came back after some time, no cash was floating," a man said.
Witnesses say the notes were fake, while some claimed the opposite.
The police said it could be a rumour as well, but they can only tell after an investigation.
